Trump: Without me 'Olympics would have been a total failure'

Source: MSN/The Hill

President Trump took credit for the success of the 2018 Winter Olympic Games in South Korea at a rally in Pennsylvania on Saturday.

During a campaign rally for state Rep. Rick Saccone (R), who is running for Congress, Trump also took credit for a lessened threat of nuclear attack surrounding the games.

"I'll tell you, we did a great job on the Olympics," Trump said. "President Moon of South Korea said without Donald Trump the Olympics would have been a total failure."

"It's a little hard to sell tickets when you think you are going to be nuked," he added. "But when North Korea called and said they wanted to be in the Olympics, everybody said let's get tickets and go."

of Independence, and winning the Revolutionary war, and the being responsible for the Resurrection, and landing on the moon, and Dunkirk, and winning WWII (both theaters), and the invention of the light bulb, and writing Ulysses, and being a more manlier man than Ernest Hemingway, and the selection of every Pope during his lifetime and before, and . . . and . . .

The man's ego knows no bounds. We already know he's going to be rolled in any deal he makes with Kim. But he and his minions (and Fox News) will spin it to show he is the greatest president ever.

We have absolutely got to stop his military parade. If he gets to do this one, he'll want an even bigger one next year, with tanks and screw the streets because he's the greatest leader ever in the history of the world, and dammit he deserves it.

It's truly shocking, if we hadn't been seeing this level of extreme delusion for more than the last few years.
